Wheels are Work Gnossis GS-1 20x9 +38 all around wrapped in Michelin PSS 245/35/20. Suspension mods are Eibach pro-kit to lower it / SPC camber kits to get aligned / Hotchikis Sway bars for turns The BBK is the Akebono BBK with drilled/slotted rotors.

So you think upgrading your VB, Flex Plate and TQ Converter are going to extend your Transmission life without upgrading the Clutch Packages???

Ryno what wheels are those?

Yes the are!! Nice! Wish they came in black. I have the graphite shadow paint job so I dont think grey wheels will be contrasting enough

Thank you! You could always have them powder coated or painted in a custom finish.

That's what I'm hoping, from what I've heard the Valve Body is the biggest thing to do in our 7ATs while pushing more power.

What kind of offset do you have and will they clear a BBK with or without spacers?

My offsets are 32 in the front and 45 in the rear. Yep as far as I know, you'll def clear bbk without spacers. I picked up my grill autokitsx. They're a vendor on here. You'll be able to find them in the vendor classifieds.

Thanks Ryno. I'm jealous of your wheel set up! Looks sick. What diffuser is that? Your car would look perfect with GT-R Tails. Def do it. Mine were sprayed.

Thanks Wild Pea. We need to try and arrange a CT meet next spring. My Eibachs paired fine with the stocks springs and I used to rip around in the snow quite a bit with this set up. A lot of fun. Not too much anymore with the new wrap, but I was fine with a few inches of snow.

Darth, my car is actually Obsidian Black, so I just got the paint codes and had my buddy paint the emblem, grille and spoiler the stock OB paint color. It was murdered out before I went with the Matte Wrap
